Apatite-type structure is known for its flexibility towards accommodating numerous ions of different crystallographic affinities. Two samples of fluorellestadite from two pyrometamorphic rocks (slags) from burned waste heaps (BWH) from France (LdS) and Poland (RDT) were studied in terms of their trace element composition using Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry. Boron shows an evident, persistent enrichment in both the samples, with average/maximum levels of 497/1040 and 49/106 ppm, respectively. So is true for magnesium (884/16766 and 404/6251 ppm, i.e., respectively) and sodium (512/697 and 249/370 ppm, respectively). Germanium is clearly enriched in the first sample (29/40 ppm) and, to a lesser degree, in the second one (34 ppm on average). The LdS sample is also clearly enriched in Al (888/1238 ppm), K (385/697 ppm), Ti (515/943 ppm), V (172/347 ppm), and Cu (16/1369 ppm). The RDT sample is also rich in As (105/120 ppm) and Sr (1072/6592 ppm). An interesting feature of both samples concerns their REE pattern: Nd is the dominant element of the group, with the respective Nd/ΣLREE and Nd/(Ce+La) values of 0.43 and 0.90; and 0.37 and 0.66. In order from highest to lower average concentrations, aluminium, magnesium, titanium, boron, potassium, and germanium may be essential substituents in the BWH apatites.

In the Variscan Bohemian Massif, orthogneiss complexes of different sizes, derived from early Palaeozoic granitoids, are accompanied by metavolcano-sedimentary successions. They are common in the Sudetes, SW Poland, and belong mainly to the Saxothuringian Terrane. In order to better characterize the evolution of the latter, new U-Pb and O isotopic zircon analyses, combined with zircon typology and new U-Th-Pb isotopic monazite analyses, were performed. The present data show that the S-type granitic precursors of the Doboszowice orthogneisses (Fore-Sudetic Block) and the Śnieżnik gneisses (Sudetes) were formed at ca. 495 Ma from differently evolved magmas. Protoliths of the Doboszowice orthogneisses developed entirely in the crust, whereas the precursors to the Śnieżnik gneisses received some mantle input. Metasediments that accompany the Doboszowice orthogneisses reveal zircon spectra, which point to a late Cambrian-Early Ordovician sedimentary age. These spectra, in addition to predominant grains with Ediacaran ages, contain up to 10% of zircons dated at ca. 1.0 Ga. Therefore, it is suggested that the parent basin was supplied with detritus coming from areas, located in the Libyan-Nubian part of North Africa. Using also earlier published data, such a provenance is assigned to the units that now occur in the eastern part of the Fore-Sudetic Block. Late Cambrian-Early Ordovician granite intrusions and the concurrent accumulation of sediments originated in an extensional setting of the peri-Gondwana rifted continental margin or a back-arc setting. The Pb/U and Pb/Th monazite data constrain the ca. 346–341-Ma peak of the Variscan regional metamorphism in the eastern Saxothuringian Terrane and the prolonged juxtaposition of now adjacent tectonic units at least until 330 Ma.

The Staré Město Belt (SMB) in the Central Sudetes forms a Variscan tectonic boundary zone that is located between the Saxothuringian and Brunovistulian terranes of the Bohemian Massif. The three thrust-bounded upper, middle and lower lithotectonic units of the SMB are composed of metasedimentary and Late Cambrian metavolcanic rocks. A new LA-ICP-MS zircon geochronology supported by zircon typology studies of the mica schists of the upper unit and the migmatitic paragneisses of the middle unit provides new insights into the provenance and evolution of the SMB. Our new data were obtained from metasedimentary rocks and compared to the previously published zircon ages of the SMB metavolcanic rocks. The results indicate that the metasedimentary and bimodal metavolcanic rocks in the separate lithotectonic units of the SMB originally formed Late Cambrian volcano-sedimentary successions. The source areas of the sedimentary basins studied were dominated by Neoproterozoic and Paleoproterozoic crystalline rocks that were presumably located near the West African Craton of Gondwana. A comparison of the detrital age spectra obtained with those previously published from the region indicates a strong association of the entire SMB with the Saxothuringian terrane of the Bohemian Massif. During partial melting of the metasedimentary rocks of the middle unit of the SMB, Cambrian and older zircon grains were affected by solid-state transformations that caused partial resetting of the U-Pb dates, changes in internal zircon textures and reductions in Th/U ratios.

The Kamieniec Ząbkowicki Metamorphic Belt (KZMB) is a narrow zone of mainly mica schists, subordinate acid metavolcanics and scarce eclogites, sandwiched between Brunovistulia and the northern tip of the Teplá-Barrandia microplates. Locally occurring high-pressure relics indicate subduction of the metasedimentary succession of the KZMB, the origin and provenance of which remain unclear. Laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) investigations of detrital zircons show that the metapelites represent an Ediacaran-Cambrian sedimentary basin, with a maximum depositional age of 561±9 Ma. This basin was filled with detritus from a source or sources, composed of rocks containing zircons that are mainly Cryogenian-Ediacaran and Palaeoproterozoic in age. No younger component was found in the zircon population studied. The isotopic U-Pb LA-ICP-MS and chemical U-Th-total Pb electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) monazite geochronology data indicate an important regional tectono-metamorphic event at ca. 330 Ma. Though these data do not permit determination of the peak pressure from the peak temperature stages, the event was part of a complex collision of the Saxothuringian plate with Brunovistulia.
